TAKE US WITH YOU…

Now that we’re slowly adapting to the new norm of ‘living with COVID’, vacations are at the top of mind for all. If you’re gearing up for your first long-haul flight in what feels like forever, just know that, 1. Your legs and back will for sure feel uncomfortable by the 10-hour mark...we mean, we have been out of the jet-setting game for a minute now, so don’t be taken aback when this occurs, and 2. Your skin will undoubtedly require more TLC than ever.

One of our rules is, if your flight is longer than three hours, keep a skin-replenishing kit close by or in your carry-on. Because cabin air is a literal vacuum for moisture. It’s so dry and low in humidity, it tries to grasp onto any moisture it can, including moisture from your skin! So to avoid looking like a shrivelled-up prune upon arrival, here are a few products to keep your skin happy and nourished while in aeroplane mode.

1. REMOVE YOUR MAKEUP

A dry cabin environment + makeup clogging your pores = skin irritation and breakouts. That’s a recipe you definitely don’t want happening. Carry a hydrating face wash that won’t leave your skin feeling tight and overly stripped like our Hydramemory Deep Cleansing Foam. It is infused with amino acids to increase skin barrier function and moisture levels, our Hydramemory Deep Cleansing Foam thoroughly removes impurities to decongest your skin.

2. PUT ON A SHEET MASK

Think of this skincare routine as a self-care ritual too. You have X hours of uninterrupted time so treat yourself. With clean hands, put on a hydrating peptide sheet mask - our Dream Peptide Complex Mask is the ultimate S.O.S treatment for skin in need of hydration. You can put it on when the cabin lights have dimmed and enter into relaxation mode.

3. PAT IN A SERUM TO HYDRATE AND PROTECT THE SKIN

The theme here is, skin hydration, and there’s no such thing as getting too much of it. One of the ways to hydrate your skin is to use a hydrating serum that’ll provide long-lasting hydration and protection from dehydration. Give your skin the power to withstand dehydrating changes in temperature and humidity by using our Advanced Facial Treatment Serum. It has a blend of 6 Multi-Growth Factors and is packed with actives to provide restorative, regenerative and protective benefits.

4. APPLY A MOISTURISER

Lock in all that hydrating goodness with a moisturiser. Our Cold Plasma Brightening Cream is perfect for the job! The ultra-velvety formula absorbs quickly with no greasy feeling. Achieve skin that glows from within with our most advanced moisturiser yet.

5. APPLY A SUNSCREEN

UV and radiation exposure increases significantly at 30,000 feet and it could impact your skin health. Urban Protective Sun Cream SPF40 PA++ is an ultra-sheer formula that provides powerful protection against free radical damage caused by UV exposure leaving skin nourished, hydrated and supple.

A little bonus tip - Keep your hydration levels up! When you’re hydrated inside, it’s easier for your skin to remain hydrated and supple as well. Try to avoid alcohol and caffeine as they deplete your body of H20. Dehydration is one of the most common reasons your skin feels horrible after a flight.
